What was the opening weekend domestic gross of Ratatouille?

The story behind the answer

Ratatouille opened to about $47 million during its domestic opening weekend. Its reported North American opening-weekend total was approximately $47.2 million, commonly rounded to $47 million in trivia references.

The film debuted at number one in 3,940 theaters when it opened in the United States and Canada on June 29, 2007. Its opening was considered modest by Pixar standards at the time, ranking as the studio’s lowest opening since A Bug’s Life in 1998. Competition from films including Transformers and Live Free or Die Hard also shaped the weekend’s marketplace.

“Domestic” in this question means the United States and Canada, not every country where the film opened. Another possible source of confusion is the difference between a precise database figure, such as $47,027,395, and the rounded $47 million used in the stored answer. Both refer to the same opening-weekend performance, so the rounded answer is fair for a general-audience quiz.
